File permissions for "/usr/sap"

[Former Member]

Hi everyone!

The question may sound dummy but how should be the file permissions for "/usr/sap" directory?

I mean who should be the owner of "sap" directory?

I'm having troubles with sapccmsr agent and the log for this agent - sapccmsr.log - shows the following warning message:

"WARNING: Could not create directory /usr/sap/ccms"

I'm beginning to suspect of file permissions for "/usr/sap" directory - where "sap" directory is currently owned by "root" within my system.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Kind regards,

Paulo

owner of the directory usr should be <sid>adm

Hi Paulo,

You need to change the group permission only for /usr/sap directory.

So Try the following permission for /usr/sap

chgrp -R sapsys /usr/sap.

after changing the permission your permission look like as follows.

ls -ld /usr/sap/

drwxr-xr-x 7 root sapsys 4096 Sep 20 2008 /usr/sap/

Thanks and Regards,

under the filesystem '/usr/sap', you have to create the other folder like ccms manually, and create ccms with permissions 777 and the owner root and the next folder corresponding to the SID should be of atleast 775 and of owner sidadm

permissions your /usr/sap are fine
